Vibration presents a major challenge for precision experiments and manufacturing processes in optoelectronics. Optical tables and breadboards in various shapes and forms are the de facto standard of vibration control. They rest on soft isolators that effectively filter out vibration from the floor. However, other sources of disturbance – acoustic noise, atmospheric turbulence and onboard sources – still exist and may become prevalent vibration sources at higher frequencies. These disturbances can have a significant negative impact on the optomechanical performance if their spectral contents are close to the resonance freuencies of the platform.
